Process, Poetics and Performance

How can established techniques in art making and composition find a new voice in the current cultural, technological and creative landscape?

Sougwen Chung shares her approach and reflects on her artistic development and forthcoming curiosities. From her origins as a violinist, to an artist working within the realm of intricate and textural audio-visuals and installation, Chung will trace her process of being inspired by tactile materials against a connection and disconnection with digital technology. In this talk, Sougwen will communicate an interdisciplinary perspective on culling influences and inquiry for exploring transitional edges in creative practice.
